Fondy Food Pantry has been keeping food on the table for needy Fond du Lac residents since 1973. We work with other local organizations and agencies to provide food to county residents who are experiencing financial hardship.
In 2017, our pantry served 2,785 residents - 1,592 adults and 1,293 children - through partnerships with local churches, businesses, and other groups and agencies. In addition our Food For Thought program provides nutritious and child-pleasing groceries to hundreds of local elementary school children who meet the federal eligibility requirements for free and reduced lunches. In the 2017-2018 school year, we served 680 students through Food for Thought.
Fondy Food Pantry is a vital resource that helps the Fond du Lac County community.
Commitment to these beliefs drives everything we do to help our entire community live in food secure households.
Dignity
We believe everyone brings something to the table and is worthy of our very best. This is why we work to ensure all, especially our guests and volunteers, are heard, listened to, and treated to the best of our ability.
A healthier way
Not only do our daily efforts strive to break the cycle of food insecurity, we are dedicated to providing nutritional options and educational guidance. Healthy is a way of living.
Compassion for children
Strong bodies, strong minds, and positive growth for all kids in our community will always be a priority.
Not afraid to work hard
Wake up with determination and go to sleep with satisfaction. This work isn’t always easy, but our volunteers make it happen!
Community mindset
We believe in fighting for the greater good and will always advocate for collaboration and creating a community that takes care of one another.
